Transcript

I did not expect it to go that viral but you are all right. I did not have my etiquettes. Mamdani bhai, I apologize for not saying please or thank you. But uh, here's a quick update that everyone has been asking for. Quick update still. The sinkhole is still there. Maybe because I did not say please or thank you. It probably won't get done anytime soon. Um, on 85th Avenue and 253rd Mamdani bhai, please help us get the street better. I just saw two cars drive by and they did not look pretty.
